So You Think You Can Dance: 2 - Page 3

!Spoiler Alert...Results from the Result Show!

Not that sad to see Joy go, I thought it was a toss up between her and Alexandra though. Alex looked like she was going to cry the whole night. Jeez, try to put a smile on your face! Heidi was awesome, I think she really proved to the judges that she wanted to stay.

I thought Ryan was going to go instead of Jason, but I have to say Jason's solo was a little sloppy. Ryan showed a lot of control.

No need to edit - I totally understood what you were saying.

As the resident GC dancer I was just trying to inform the lay people!

My random thoughts about tonight:
Why do the judges think Ivan is so great?
Natalie is annoying how she practically molests Musa when they are giving out the phone number to call.
Benji would be a great Broadway dancer.
I think Alison is going to win the whole competition.

Yeah, I don't get Natalie and Musa... she's playing into the sex appeal too much, and not enough talent (compared to the others for me). Musa's awesome at what he does, but it's safe to say he's no where close to being the strongest male.

Ryan is boring. His personality, everything. Boring. Boring. Boring.

I've yet to really appreciate Allison. I have nothing bad to say about her, I just don't appreciate her.

Ivan's totally impressed me as well. He's still not the strongest male to me, that's Travis or Benji, but he's come so far and think that's what impressive. And like Bryan said tonight- he pointed his toes and totally rocked the comtemporary dancer part. I was very impressed.

Benji and Donyelle do it for me though. I thought it was going to be Travis and his partner when the show first started, but Benji and Donyelle are just what Nigel (is that his name?) said- the real deal, the total package. I will be sad to see someone else win. Maybe Allison, but she'll need a new partner to start to amaze me in order to win.

And they probably do want a girl to win this season if they can help it, since a guy won the last...

Dimitri needs to go... he just annoys the hell out of me. He's a terrible partner and seems like he's a pain in the ass to work with. He looked like an idiot last night dancing, he just couldn't pull it off. He's good at his own style, but hasn't been convincing in other genres.

SOPi_Jawbreaker · #36 07-13-2006, 09:59 PM

I can't believe they got rid of Musa rather than Dimitri.

He's the only one I couldn't stand. I used to not be able to stand Heidi, but she's kinda grown on me. I pretty much really, really liked everyone except Dimitri, Ashley, Ryan, and Heidi.

Dimitri knows he gets a lot of extra credit because of his looks, but I think his personality has shown through and made him a lot less attractive to people.

I feel the same way about Heidi! She kind of annoyed me for awhile, especially the faces she makes. But she's a great dancer. I like her better with her hair straight.

I LOVE Martha, though I do agree with the judges and it seems as if some of the sparkle is gone. I have a feeling that they are ALL exhausted and beat up, physically and mentally. It's not going to get any easier, either, with two partner routines and a solo next week.

I wanted Ashlee to go for the girls, I think that she was just outclassed. I do give HUGE props to people who aren't "classically" trained- like poppers, etc. They have to learn all of these things where basic technical things are so important, but so ingrained in trained dancers. I have taken one dance class in my entire life (I really wish my parents would have put me in dance when I was younger, but they never did), and I can't imagine doing what they do. But when it comes down to it, a popper is NOT going to win this contest. I don't think Las Vegas shows are heavy on popping. But this can be a great springboard to a future career elsewhere, choreographing music videos and such.

Cat Deeley annoys the hell out of me. Where do they find these people to host? And why the crappy British accent?

Seriously! I don't remember WHO hosted last year, but I know I liked them a lot more. They need to get rid of her before next season. PLEASE.

Travis was beyond amazing in his solo tonight. I LOVED it!!

you all should pat yourselves on the back -you mentioned natalies sex emphasis a while ago and then that is what nigel pointed out to her last night.i told my daughter-"the gcers spotted that before nigel mentioned it!!" you go girls!!

ShaedyKD · #40 07-27-2006, 10:47 PM

Man, I hate Natalie! I know Alison is only 18, but I seriously think she was a better all around dancer. And I just don't get the obsession with Donyelle either. She's good yeah, but Alison and Heidi are more adaptabe I think.

As far as the guys go, I think all the 13 year olds in the world are voting for Ivan, when Benji and Travis have better technique and more professional performance styles.

SOPi_Jawbreaker · #41 07-27-2006, 11:43 PM

I also liked Alison better than Natalie. I think Benji and Travis are cuter than Ivan, so I don't get why all the 13-year olds would be voting for Ivan. I'm not saying it couldn't be happening, but I just don't get it.

KDAngel · #42 07-27-2006, 11:46 PM

I think Natalie finally stopped her sexpot act the past 2episodes and has really redeemed herself. She's always been a good dancer, but it was just hard to see for a while. I was torn between which girl I wanted to leave.

Donyelle was best with Benji, but she's still amazing to me. I think Heidi should be the last girl standing though. And I think she should also be in a final 3 with Benji and Travis.

I def think Travis is hands down better than Ivan too. I totally agree with the comment about 13yo girls pulling him through.

But let's be honest, Benji's hands down the best on the show, and I'd be shocked to see anyone but him win, esp since he seems to have the crowd support. Travis is totally my 2nd fav though. I LOVED his audition!

JenMarie · #43 07-28-2006, 03:30 PM

Travis would probably be a better fit for Celine's show. (The apparent prize.)

Benji belongs on Broadway, hands down.

Speaking of Benji, I was at a retirement party for my fiance's aunt and uncle last weekend and someone there knew they entire Schwimmer family. I thought it was hilarious. They didn't know Heidi, but knew Benji, his dad and mom, etc.

Winner will probably be another guy.

And I could probably justify going to a SYTYCD tour date more than I could an AI date. Especially at the Paramount Theater.

xo_kathy · #44 08-02-2006, 09:12 PM

Am watching it right now and just saw Travis' solo. His turn combination literally took my breath away. It was spot on technically exquisite!

And Benji's about to do a Broadway number!

KDAngel · #45 08-03-2006, 11:25 AM

Travis and Heidi were hands down the best last night.

I knew the judges were going to have to be harsh to one group, to make sure America understood who technically and ability wise were the weakest, and they sure did that with Ivan and Natalie. I would be sad to see any other guy instead of him...

The competition is really between Benji, Heidi, and Travis at this point and I hope America sees that.
